00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 1: Steelers training camp at St. Penncent College. I'm Dale Lolly

5
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: here with Matt Williamson. This is the Drive on Steelers

6
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: Nation Radio and ESPN nine seventy bringing you live coverage

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: from Steelers training camp. And boy, Matt Jalen Warren just

8
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: had a really nice yeah and there I hit the middle,

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 1: hit the whole quickly, made a little cut, gets about

10
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: ten yards there before he gets put on the ground,

11
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: and uh, he gets here quick. He gets her quick.

12
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: And some of these inside run drills, you know, from

13
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: where we sit, I always don't know exactly how to

14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: judge them. I mean, if they've been live with someone

15
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: standing up across from you know, I mean, how is

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: the blocking can't rewind what they're going live here? But

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: they're going in this case, they're going live. They're they're

18
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: giving everything they got And to your point, he's just

19
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: an incident excel le Rader. He's a no nonsense guy.

20
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: That's another one that's at six yards. You know, he

21
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 1: just bulls forward. Yeah, he always falls forward. I mean

22
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: whenever he makes his initial contact, he's very low and

23
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: he almost always stuns the tackle falls and the four

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: strives for his legs are massive and they go quick. Yeah,

25
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: he's got really good foot frequency and quickness. So even

26
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: if the linebacker, a lot of times the linebacker ends

27
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: up catching him as opposed to hitting him like you're

28
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: just you're kind of because he gets there so fast.

29
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: He totally set you're hanging on for dear life, and

30
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: he gets another yard or two, you know. I mean,

31
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: that's valuable as a running back, and a lot of

32
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: those little guys, you know, a d line very nice

33
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: one to Farland on the ground before he could get

34
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: going or for about a four yard loss. McFarland had

35
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: a nice little runing before that, though, where he kind

36
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,919
Speaker 1: of took it off tackle and he kind of bounced

37
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: to the outside and got five yards before getting caught.

38
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 1: That's some of the things that he didn't necessarily do.

39
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: He just gun starting off owner. In my opinion, you

40
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: got the ball and ran forward right right right, go

41
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: be fast and explosive. And now you understand the I'm

42
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: not making excuses for McFarland because for a long time ago.

43
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: But I promise you, if you would have had a

44
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: real camp preseason his rookie year, things would have progressed

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: a little quick Look at that run, and he does

46
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: it over and over ten yards on that one, like

47
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: just bursting up the middle. I don't know what I'm like.

48
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,959
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Benny Snow can't do that. No, bennythel can't

49
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: do that at all. Ever. Honestly, I'm not trying to

50
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: get a rise out of people or they're not really

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: close to me. And I think still looks better than

52
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: he used to. But it doesn't look like that. Yeah,

53
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 1: I mean, he just explodes to the lot of scrimmage um.

54
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: The other thing about Warren two, it was the middle

55
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: of saying that before the McFarland play. A lot of

56
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: those smaller guys, even the short stocky ones. If a

57
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 1: big three pound d lineman gets a whole arm on you,

58
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: it'll stun you and at least redirect it. He runs

59
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: right through those cam Heyward arm tackles, you know what

60
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: I mean, because he's lower to the ground the right

61
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: here goes again a little outside run. Even with that

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: he gets I didn't think that was him. That's mastertigue.

63
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: He doesn't hit it quite as fast. No, no, and

64
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 1: to hit it fast, you have to read it fast.

65
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: Like there's some backs that have eyes vision, but they

66
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 1: don't have the feat to get there. You know. That

67
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: happens to older great backs and some that have the

68
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: great feet, like I think Antonio Gibson might be this guy.

69
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: He's got the great feet, but doesn't see it as quick.

70
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: It hasn't been a running back long and doesn't have

71
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: those natural instincts feel for the game vision. You know,

72
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: Warren looks like he has both little uh preseason fantasy

73
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: football earth there, Jalen Warren could be uh keep an

74
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: eye on, yeah, and for preseason fantasy he might be

75
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: the league winner for you could be a league winner.

76
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: I could see them getting him. You know. You want

77
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: to see if he can handle a heavy workload. Maybe,

78
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: so maybe give him fifteen carries and him to see

79
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: how he handles it time after time after time. Mike

80
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: Tomlin loves to do that to see, you know, how

81
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: what's your what's your ability to the threshold? You know, yeah,

82
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: where's that? Where's it at? Find that out? Because that's

83
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: what you know Benny Snow can do that. You do

84
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: know Benny Snow can do it, and if Naji went down,

85
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: and if Warren truly is the two which we expect,

86
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: you want him to be able to handle a lot

87
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: or is twelve or fifteen about his limit? And you know,

88
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: I'd have to go back and look at his uh.

89
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. Like he was a part time player

90
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: his first couple of seasons at the Utah State UM.

91
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: You know, last year at the Oklahoma State I think

92
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 1: he had about two fifty carry So curious what his

93
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: workloads were per game or whatever. Two carries in the

94
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: college game is pretty you're getting about twenty a game. Yeah,

95
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: big twelves a lot different than with a lot. He's

96
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,799
Speaker 1: got a lot of stuff out of this at a shotguns,

97
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,239
Speaker 1: sidecars things. Yeah, the wide hash marks. They're not exactly

98
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: known for defense and that of the country either, you know.

99
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what he's been impressive here, extremely

100
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: extremely impressive. Fatigue again in the backfield he year. Can

101
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: you pick it in the eye. I like seeing Tigue

102
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: get a shot. Whenever they signed him, I kind without

103
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: had to throw it, you know. Jay Sternberger goes in

104
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: motion from my right to left and sets up on

105
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: the opposite sideline that we get a little jet sweep mode, emotion,

106
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: a lot of things going on before the most coming back. Yeah,

107
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: Tigue gets to football. He runs hard, no nonsense guy. Yeah.

108
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: I got his shoulder square to the line of scrimmage

109
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: and end up getting about two and a half three yards,

110
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: So not bad. I'm looking at made that's a runder

111
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: the edge. There is that Mark Robinson again, who's forty six.

112
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: He's he must be one of them. He must be

113
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: the new guy because of the roster I'm looking at. Yeah,

114
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: Christian koons On here is the only Yeah, the signings

115
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: we made. Next play there on defense, that's what. Yeah,

116
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: he's playing outsideline. Yeah, it looks like you got a

117
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: pretty sturdy building, pretty long arms. Yeah. And he's out

118
00:05:52,520 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: there with siling Warren against And that was a nice

119
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: hole though. Yeah. I mean, I'm not taking anything away

120
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: from Ti hit it well, got a lot out of it.

121
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: But that was a nice big hole to run through

122
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 1: the old line one that one. Yeah, that will that

123
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: will do it for that drill um another spirited inside. Yeah,

124
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what they today. Yeah, not so much.

125
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 1: The offensive line has gotten better doing I think the

126
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: run blocking has gotten better as his campus going on,

127
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: I would imagine, and I like seeing a lot from

128
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: under center. A lot of the pre snap stuff I

129
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: think does help them with angles and slowing down linebackers,

130
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: and they deserve credit to they're coming off the ball

131
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: better and they're getting more comfortable and they're moving their

132
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: opponents a little bit. So let's not just throw this

133
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: old line under the under the bus totally. So far,

134
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, they got a chance to get better, absolutely,

135
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: and there they are allowed to do so. Now I

136
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: will say that, you know, even that first line was

137
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: out there against t J. Watt was out there. I

138
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: didn't see if Cam Heyward was out there, and I

139
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 1: don't think so. You're not seeing Tyson and Lulu out there,

140
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: you're not seeing Larry Ogan Joe, but you're basically seeing

141
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: the backup the second team offensive lines. You better open

142
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: some holes against that group, and they did when they're

143
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: out there as a hole and they did, and they

144
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: supposed to do so not bad. Now we're going through

145
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: a little field goal, uh field goal drill here. Um,

146
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: gotta get this unit ready to go for the weekend

147
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: as well, so you know, let's give them a breather too.

148
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: The other guys can kind of get some water chat

149
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: with the coaches. Hey, you did that. Well, another long

150
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: snapper over there now working on it. Who is that there?

151
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: Another you're pointing at that's seventies. That is John Leglue

152
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: and that's who was. That's who it was. Yeah, he's

153
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: done it before. Yeah, we talked about that, and he's

154
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: the back he's the backup long snapper's good way to

155
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: make the team. Do you think he's active on game

156
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: day week one though? Ubab? Probably because you know, slam dunk.

157
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: He's your He can play center. He can also he

158
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: can play tackle if he had too, So yeah, there's

159
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: some value there. I mean, I don't think he's a

160
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: strelsis true six man, you know, but he can do

161
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: he can. Yeah, that's a good way to get your

162
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: off active on game days, to be the effecta. That's

163
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: a good way to stay valuable. I'm sure there's another

164
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: name though that we don't know. I think he's the two.

165
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to ask him about that. I've I've

166
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: seen him walking by a couple of times the last

167
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: couple of over the last couple of weeks, and I'm like,

168
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: I should talk to John Leglue. I got an interesting story, yea.

169
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: And things worked out well for him at that left

170
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: guard position this year or last year too. The guy

171
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: he was with the Packers in his initial camp and

172
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: didn't he didn't make it there. That happens sometimes with

173
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: these with these young offensive lineman. Well, he's a Packer

174
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:35,079
Speaker 1: type lineman too, a lot of positions, little leaner. That's

175
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: that's exactly the type of guys that they get a

176
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: lot of success out of. Who did who? Do we

177
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: say that maker Fitzpatrick hit on that run drill? Um

178
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: that one on one drill that was? Was that mastertigue?

179
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: I think so yeah, I'm not a hundred percent shore

180
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: on that Mike pursuit of asking me here, Okay, yeah,

181
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: I think so yeah. We didn't see Benny Snell in

182
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: that drill at all? Uh. I wonder if I wonder

183
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: if he's dealing with something or if they just want

184
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: to see the other backs in this game. Maybe maybe

185
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, maybe they were looking at maybe they're looking

186
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: at this as well. Benny Snell is gonna make this roster?

187
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 1: Did uh? And then you want to look at the

188
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: other undrafted free agent get any carries. I don't think so.

189
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: Durant during not Yeah, I think he has been dealing

190
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: with a little something. Yeah, he got he got his

191
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: bell rung um pretty bad. One Monday, they were doing

192
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: it again that inside runs drill and he took a

193
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: couple of carries in a row where he had his

194
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: helmet knocked off. And the second one not only did

195
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: the helmet come off, but then somebody actually, you know,

196
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: you're just coming in to hit him, and his shoulder

197
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: pad get up into his face as the as the

198
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: helmet came off. So I wouldn't surprise me if he's

199
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: dealing with a concussion of some type. I wonder if

200
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: it's a lot of tigue on Sunday then or Saturday,

201
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: then I mean, I know Ware is gonna get some

202
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: Warren wouldn't surprise me if he plays the entire first half.

203
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 1: But you're gonna see some Anthony McFarland in there as well.

204
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 1: Yeah oh yeah, but I mean it would think you've

205
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: won three or four backs throughout the course of the game.

206
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 1: I'd like to but yeah, we'll continue to see how

207
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: that continues to develop. Um got some clouds rolling in

208
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: here again, Matt, What is it? Like the Steelers are

209
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: practicing so clouds right now. It's funny. I hit the

210
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: old weather app and they said, uh, thunderstorms likely to

211
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: end around four that they know today when they're starting

212
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: or whatever. But it doesn't look super super promising. We

213
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 1: haven't heard the the announcement on the to clear the

214
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: stands or anything like that. That's a big thing. But

215
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: that's that's when they tell you everyone, get out. Yeah,

216
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: you must get out. That happened once or twice last week. Yeah,

217
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,719
Speaker 1: let's get the heck out of here. It's like, get out,

218
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 1: all right, Okay, I'm out. What did you watch a

219
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: lot of movies and your kids? I was a big

220
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: chicken baby. I can remember watching Nightmare in Elm Street

221
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: when I was when I was like in high school

222
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: and I'm old enough to know better. But you see

223
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: that for the first time and you're like, I'm going

224
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: to bed now, I can't sleep, right, Mean, kids nowadays

225
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: don't get scared as easier. They've seen so much. Yeah,

226
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 1: yeah right, I'm trying to get my daughter watched Silence

227
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: of Lambs. I think that might scare, but I mean

228
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: the true horror, jump out at you stuff. But I

229
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: didn't handle well as a kid. And I'm sure I

230
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: told you my omen story, to which I don't think

231
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: you did. Okay, I slept over my buddies. I was

232
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: probably ten eleven, something like that, pull out couch in

233
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: the middle of his living room and the omens on

234
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 1: HBO or whatever. First time I ever watched it, we

235
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: watched the start to finish well, like Damian the Antichrist,

236
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: I was born on six six, So I'm in the

237
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: I'm in the bathroom, like pulling my hair back, looking

238
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: looking for you, looking for birth marks. I was afraid

239
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: to ask my mom for like three years what time

240
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: of day I was born. It affected me in quite

241
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: a way. I saw it a little too early. It's

242
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: a little narcissistic at you to believe that you were

243
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: the anti Christ. I mean, I thought I had a

244
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: better chance than folks born on the other three hundred

245
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: sixty three days of the year. I mean, if we're

246
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: all coming from June six birthdays and there was down

247
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: the field, you know, now, if you were born in

248
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 1: June sixty six, that's a little different, right. Seventy three

249
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: was a little a little clear. Yeah, you were too late.

250
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: But if it was six am or six pm. I

251
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: was a little worried. I was afraid to ask Jony

252
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: my mom for a long time. Uh yeah, so there's that.

253
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 1: But no, I was a big chicken baby with with

254
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: horror movies. Yeah, that's Some of them were good, Like

255
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: you know, the first time you watch The Exorcists and

256
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: you're like twelve the Exorcists scars you do right, Yeah,

257
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: they start talking to double. Ones are a little more

258
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: believable to you know what I mean, Like Jason vorhees,

259
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: you can only kill you and you can almost you know,

260
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: call what's going to happen in a lot of this

261
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 1: as well. Don't go don't don't go in that room

262
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: with the chainsaws, you know, all right, yeah and stuff.

263
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: But Fred was probably the worst because we all got

264
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: to sleep. Yeah that means to get me. The wife

265
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: was a big original Halle Halloween Michael Myers fan. I

266
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: always wanted to watch it on Halloween and I'd be like, um,

267
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 1: maybe I'll go friends, and it was a game tonight

268
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: on My wife's are not a big fan of the

269
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: horror movies either, so we don't watch many of them

270
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: at my house. At least I don't get to because

271
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: I gotta watch what she watches. Uh, you meant you

272
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: mentioned your daughter, who's a little older than my daughter.

273
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: I guess her and her friends have been watching horror

274
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: movies I'd recommend and I'm like The Exorcist and she's like,

275
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: it's so boring. They don't do anything, you know. I'm like, well,

276
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: in Times of Change or something like The Ring. Did

277
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: you watch your Ring? I've heard The Ring scary and

278
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: the Conjuring, I guess is one of the newer scary guys.

279
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: The Ring had the girl crawling across that Yeah, with

280
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: the hair, Yeah, that's that's I think I may have

281
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: seen that one or parts of that freaks me out,

282
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: but more like signs of Lamb stuff to me is

283
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: scarier and more real. Well, yeah, Annibal Lectors. That guy's everywhere. Well,

284
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: he's a combination of three zero killers from the past. Unfortunately,

285
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: I'd read the books before I saw the movie. You

286
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 1: do that all the time, and I do. I read

287
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: a lot. My wife. I I came back from training camp,

288
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: uh last week, and my wife had taken all the

289
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: books that I had on the back of the bed,

290
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: and they were when I say all the books were

291
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: talking a lot. Twenty books that I read just this year.

292
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: Those are those were this year's books that I read,

293
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, before I go to bed. Like one of

294
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: the problems is is I went to a Catholic school

295
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: as a kid, and one of the things that they

296
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 1: taught us was speed read. I was about to divulge

297
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 1: your impressive secret. I'm very jealous and skill. I could

298
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: just fly, I fly through books. You know, I'll go,

299
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: I'll go buy a book when I go on a

300
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: flight somewhere, and I'll read the entire book on that flight.

301
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: Like that's so awesome. I mean it is, but it

302
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: isn't you know. I go to a lot of books.

303
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: I get a whole like boxes of books at home

304
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: that I mean, I would go through NFL stuff, you know, yeah,

305
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: or you know, maybe i'd start reading books too if

306
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: I run them that fast. But when you told me that,

307
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, maybe I should learn and like I don't

308
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: know they had but it was pretty easy because they

309
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: had a machine and they had a light, like a

310
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: little fine line of light, and you could you gradually

311
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: eased your you know, you could speed it up as

312
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 1: you went. So you start off at one speed, like

313
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: when you learn the type you get faster and faster.

314
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: And so you're sitting it's kind of in a dark room,

315
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: and that light is just going down the line of

316
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: the page, and so you train your eyes to go

317
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: down the page with it, and you keep getting faster

318
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: and faster and faster. And so I did that when

319
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: I was a kid, and here I am, and correct

320
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: me if i'm years later. You need to get every word,

321
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, like my brain, my brain reads it faster,

322
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: but you've trained your brain to to do that, and

323
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: so you just you go right down the page. And

324
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: and on a more pressing note, we're back in some Yeah,

325
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 1: we got one on one. Cam Heyward's out there, Russian,

326
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: Mr Rbiskie. I mean it's a sort of noteworthy with

327
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: all respect to your speed reading skills, which again I'm

328
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: very jealous of and my my omen story. But that's

329
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: a perfect time. Word is out there. Um, just to

330
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: set the defense here, Chris Wormley out there. T J.

331
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: Watt is out there on the line as well. On

332
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: the upper side. There's Derek Tusco is at the other

333
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: outside line. Ones. Yeah, as healthy as they could be

334
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: right now. Cam Sutton and a Kellow Weatherspoon. Well, Cam

335
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 1: Sutton's the nickel right now. So you get Levi Wallace

336
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: and Can with the spoon the outside guys making Fitzpatrick

337
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: out there. The inside backers are uh and Bush. Yeah.

338
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: I haven't noticed Jack today, am I. I wonder if

339
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: they're holding him out? Um, I mean I had see

340
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: there's the problem with with Splain. So you get messed

341
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: up on the one one on one over the middle,

342
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: and that's just easy pickings. And I'm not gonna say

343
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: Trabisky is the next on Montana because of this, but

344
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: he sees that right away, all right. You know that's

345
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: what you know when people talk about, well, can Robert

346
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: Splaine push Devin Bush out of the lineup, Well probably,

347
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 1: you know if Bush implodes. But in today's NFL, like

348
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: Splaine is the better run stuffer, yeah, and better coverage. Yeah,

349
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: he just covers a lot more ground. I mean, and

350
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: he's it's not like he's awful, or at least he

351
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: wasn't awful and run stopping before the knee injury. No, no, no, right,

352
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: So that's that's what I look at. I mean, today's NFL,

353
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: you need to have Devin Bush out there. That's why

354
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: they traded up to get him. I like yeah, a

355
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: little blitzer. He came free. Yeah. In reality is if

356
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: it gets to that point where Bush's a liability, Splane's

357
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,239
Speaker 1: beating him out or then you go to dime. Yeah right,

358
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: you know, you just get lighter and you you have

359
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: six defensive backs out there instead of five in those

360
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: situations and play with Jack as your only linebacker, you know,

361
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: and so you can't let Splane guard the friar moves

362
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: of the world like that happened in that play, because

363
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna get beat. Yeah right, that's just how it goes.

364
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna take another break. Here is Matt Williams and

375
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: Dale Allly here with Matt Williamson. We're starting to see

376
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 1: some fans kind of scramble for copper hair a little bit. Well,

377
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: there's a little ominous, a little if you've got all

378
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: of a sudden, the stiff wind came up here and

379
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 1: the temperatures has dropped like twenty degrees. Yeah, it could

380
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: pass in a second, or we could get five minutes

381
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: from now, we could be in back in the sunlight,

382
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: or we could be seeing armageddon again. This is the

383
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: wonders of while we were gone though. Real nice out

384
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: route by Rudolph, driving the ball there on time. And

385
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: then this one here, the last row from picket. It

386
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 1: was a quick slant out of the slot, but came

387
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 1: out now and he hit him six inches in front

388
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: the numbers. You know, Bill Walsh would have been proud.

389
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: Little pressure there, that's nice scap pressure he bought some

390
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: time to open up. Yeah, that worked out well too. Yeah,

391
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: did a good job there escaping the pressure and rolling

392
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: to his right and getting the ball out. So good

393
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: series by the rook absolutely. Um so the offense, uh

394
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: doing a pretty good job today here getting better. Yeah,

395
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 1: I mean they are absolutely are get the ones against

396
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: the ones coming up back out here. He is Matt

397
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: Williams and I am Dale Lally. You're listening to the

398
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,959
Speaker 1: drive here on Steelers Nation Radio and ESPN nine seventy

399
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: are live coverage from training camp practice here at same

400
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: Fencing College and well the nicey blue sky again over there.

401
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: So yeah, they were okay, thanks, happening quickly around here.

402
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: We'll see they've been given us something stopping. So where

403
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: we got going here? I don't see the change yet.

404
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think I could be second and short.

405
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: It's like some situational stuff here. So yeah, yeah, it

406
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:15,480
Speaker 1: looks like second and short from where moving to change,

407
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 1: moving to change here, it comes to win second and

408
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 1: ten from the looks of things here. So an unsuccessful

409
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: play first down, and now what do you do coming

410
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 1: out of that? So we got ones against ones? Uh,

411
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 1: it looks like they're in a base here. Man. They

412
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,199
Speaker 1: got TJ out there, you know, yeah, it looks but

413
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: it looks I only see. I don't see a nickel

414
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: corner unless they're both on the outside up there. Kids,

415
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: tell what offensive personnels out there? Deante Johnson out there today.

416
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: I didn't think Deante is gonna do a lot of practice.

417
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: Still love in personnel. You would think they'd be a nickel. Yeah,

418
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 1: I think there is. I think Manka's down the line

419
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Interesting, it's Terrell. Terrell Edmonds is deep safety

420
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 1: in the past, is batted down there. Uh maybe you've

421
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: seen this in the past, but we've hinted at it.

422
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: You know, it's something that we were think about out

423
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: and we always use Mark Andrews as the conversation of

424
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 1: Minka coming down pressing the the slot slash tight end.

425
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: It's exactly we did the friar mouth. Miles Jack was

426
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: out there as well. Yeah, but Minka k Z was

427
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 1: the deep center, as we've suspected over the months, and

428
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: Minka walked right down to the line of scrimmage, pressed

429
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 1: friar mouth like he was a press corner actually and

430
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 1: beat him up. You can't get off a lot. Mike

431
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 1: is uh right now, Cam Sutton is deep. Mike A.

432
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,639
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick is spot again right, and Cam Sutton is the

433
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: deep safety. Interesting, he's done a little of that. You know.

434
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: We we raved about him yesterday being very football intelligent.

435
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: Oh what was only it's a good decision. He had

436
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: to lead him a little more though there's a good

437
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: route by pickings. He got some separation balls little behind

438
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: him almost picked. Yeah, so how would you how would

439
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: you explain this? So so Minka is basically the nickel

440
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: there and Sutton's the free safety. But what personnel did

441
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: they have out there? Did they have? They have five

442
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: defensive backs or four? They had five at five? Yeah? Okay, Um,

443
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't have a name for that,

444
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:07,719
Speaker 1: but I mean I think it's just I mean, if

445
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: that's if you were describing the position, Um, that's what

446
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: it was. So they're back now too high shell with

447
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: Edmonds and in Manka just basically two there. That's t J. Watch. Yeah,

448
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: he's just reckon how I was looking at the safeties.

449
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 1: It really didn't make any difference, Yeah, because the ball

450
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 1: never really because they couldn't block the defense player of

451
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, shockingly and right. But yeah, it looks

452
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: like we might be okay here from the rain, I

453
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 1: don't know, it looks like it got who the heck knows.

454
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: There's all this blue and then there's all this dark

455
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: and then there's dark. It might have blown path that

456
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: when we kicked up so quickly. It just blew past

457
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: this before it had a chance. Now we're back in

458
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: nickel here, Sutton is the nickel and make it Fitzpatrick

459
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: is this is more of a traditional nickels. But but

460
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: a lot of priests not moving by the defense. So yeah,

461
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: moving around, dropping into some shells here. See but what

462
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: they did that little cover too, and he just found

463
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 1: a good throw by that was pretty yeah. See that's

464
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: good work by the quarterback. Who's the quarterback there? See

465
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: I was really paying attention to the coverages, and we

466
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: were talking about Sutton who was over the slot, but

467
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: he was well deep of the slot. He was maybe

468
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: ten twelve yards off the ball, but he was going

469
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: with the slot receiver and it looked like he was

470
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 1: playing man against the slot. Well soon as the ball snapped.

471
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: As what sort of happened a couple of plays ago,

472
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 1: Sutton went to a deep too high shell with Edmunds

473
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: and Minka was the robber and jumped in the middle

474
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: there to take away any crossing route and everyone assuming

475
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be a deep safety, they flipped ref

476
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: wonts abilities. But in the meantime you kind of got

477
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: Edmunds stuck on a small receiver in the void, you know,

478
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 1: in the void of all that motion, and Trabisky nailed it,

479
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: you know, he put it right on time. Hit a

480
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: little fast in there, right, there was no low. We're

481
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: just gonna throw this and get get ten yards, just

482
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna hit this guy in stride where if

483
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: Minka is in deep middle, maybe he gets in position

484
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 1: to you know, take away that big play after the catch,

485
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: but he's cheating down and you know, a little fast

486
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: guys over the top man. Such a life, yea, And

487
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: it was nice moved by Austin too, like, oh yeah,

488
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: Edmonds is coming over to cut off the sideline and

489
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: he just cut it back inside and to the races.

490
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 1: I mean in open space. Edmonds isn't a finger on off.

491
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 1: I don't know if Minco is a finger right right.

492
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 1: I mean that's a tough He's at full he's at

493
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: full speed ahead because I'm hit him and stride. I

494
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: know there's a lot of guys ahead of him, but

495
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: I'm not sure who else does that on this team,

496
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: you know, I mean that it's it's that's sudden that

497
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 1: you get him in that spot with a good quarterback.

498
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: Read that the back really has a war again. That

499
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: is a nice run. That's it's just a great run. Yeah.

500
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: He hits it hard. Yeah, a little been moved there

501
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: here by the offense. Yeah, it's been a really good

502
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: offensive practice going back to seven shots too. Yeah. Absolutely

503
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: again just hitting it up in there and getting getting

504
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: yardage running with aggression and high knees and yeah, he's impressive. Yeah,

505
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a fan favorite I think in this

506
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: pre season. Oh he will if he isn't. If people

507
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: haven't caught on by now, I've Sunday, everyone will be

508
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: talking about him. Yeah. Um, I do the postgame show Saturday.

509
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 1: I bet there's a conversation about Yeah. When you think

510
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: of that guy, I like him. Yeah he is Matt

511
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: Williams and I am Dale Alire listening to the drive

512
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: here on Steelers Nation Radio and ESPN nine seventy. Can

513
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: you pick it out there? Now as we watch a

514
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: Steelers training camp practice live, he's under center. Looks like

515
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: a Mastertigue set up behind him getting emotion by Hayward

516
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: from my right to left. Now we get some jet

517
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 1: sweep motion and the handoff goes to Master Tigue turning

518
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: those legs. I'll tell you what did a nice job

519
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: of getting a couple of yards. Yeah, there wasn't much

520
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: there and he no nonsense us on that side, and

521
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 1: he danced around it and got got a couple of yards.

522
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call him explosive, but he's powerful. Yeah, now

523
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: we get some rain again. You know where's that coming from?

524
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: He said, Jacob breckt here scrambles to get all of

525
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: our gear underneath. Yeah, I mean we're not covering practice

526
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: of Jacobs, not all wet. Jacob brought like seventy two

527
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: pairs of shoes out here and then all they're all

528
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: so heal. So I don't want this practice the end though,

529
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: Pick it in the shotgun. Now they running back to

530
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: his right. We get again the motion from right to left.

531
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: There that time design roll up picked up a couple

532
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: of cheap yards. Yeah, the past actually goes to Tyler

533
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 1: Van who was the motion guy. That's tough on the defense,

534
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: it is. Yeah, I mean you got to declare early

535
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: to stick with him. Yeah, so yeah, I mean it's

536
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: easy five yards. It just uh, the thing is that

537
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: with third and ten, Well, so the defense is gonna

538
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: play that little defense wins, right, But now we're backing

539
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 1: five here, Um, see what you do? Pick it again?

540
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 1: The quarterback? Um, they how to up here? Defense, It

541
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: looks like they're any quick sharp decisions here, Kenny, looks

542
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: like they're in a base here. I don't see a

543
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: nickel out there. So base defense, you get. U got

544
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: two wide receivers to his left, two tight ends. Now

545
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: again pre snap motion, he got the corner. I think

546
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: that was a legit. That's tough on that edge defender.

547
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 1: You give them the ball cleanly like that when they're

548
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 1: already moving full speed and you're flat footed. Absolutely, it's

549
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: tough to even push them to the inside. Absolutely. I

550
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 1: think we're gonna see so they'll at least try that

551
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: out Saturday. Yeah, on tape. I promise that all people

552
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 1: listening will look at tomorrow or Saturday's game be like

553
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: this offense just looks different. All the motion and all

554
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: that stuff. They're not practicing it, not to use it.

555
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you know they do. You see like on

556
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: both tight ends going in motion at the same time,

557
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: and all the time set up the once outline. They

558
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 1: motioned to the other side. Then you get you know,

559
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: back and forth motion on it. Yet sweep. You know,

560
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: it's just almost every place. A lot of I candy there. Yeah,

561
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: and even you see the quarterback under center more, you know,

562
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of stuff to decipher, and

563
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: if you make the right, you know, the wrong step

564
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: one way or another, the offense should beat you. It's

565
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 1: kind of Andy Reid like, is it not. Yeah, yeah, absolutely,

566
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: he's a lot of I candy guy, you know, no,

567
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: no doubt about that. Yeah. So it's gonna me interesting.

568
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: What you got your kickoff team, they'll kickoff you. I

569
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: got to practice all this stuff here. So Danie Smith

570
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: got his first team kickoff unit out there. Um, okay,

571
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: getting some ideas there of who moves out there. So

572
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: I see trade Nora Wood out there. I see Buddy Johnson. Uh,

573
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 1: what do my kickoff return here? So kick return to

574
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: the first two layers of kick return. Yeah, that that's

575
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 1: what I'm looking at here. That's the return guys. Um

576
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: we're setting up there. So the deep guys, I see

577
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: Kevin Raider on the upside there, Um, Buddy Johnson, Mark Robinson,

578
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: this is the guys we to do it in the game.

579
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: Foundational guys for this. Yeah. So uh, and the return

580
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: man back there, well, if they're not usually they got

581
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: the new forty six out there too. The outside linebacker.

582
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: I gotta get him ready. He's been in the league

583
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: for a while, so yeah, but I would think you

584
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: want him on teams Saturday. Yeah, you can't know what

585
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: you're doing there because if you only have so many

586
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: outside linebackers active, that's just the way it goes. You

587
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 1: better be ready to go do that stuff. And now

588
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: we're getting pretty steady range. Good, Danny's getting wet. That's yeah,

589
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: good for end. Find it a little interesting though. We

590
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: got thirteen just hovering here on the sidelines like he's

591
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: ready to go in. So his special team's usage, to

592
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: me is certainly a thing to keep my eye on,

593
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: just because if they're going to try him on all

594
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: these things that he's not super experienced at, that means

595
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: they might be keeping them. Yeah. He did some of

596
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: that stuff with the Ravens, right, and there are very

597
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: special teams oriented club. Absolutely absolutely, But yeah, we're we

598
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: might as well take another break here. That's a good

599
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: time during this special team session. He is Matt Williamson.

600
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,920

Speaker 1: Welcome back. I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt Williams and

607
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: we are alive from Steelers training camp here on espn

608
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 1: N and Steelers Nation Radio on your home twenty four

609
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: hour a day coverage up the Pittsburgh Steelers and of

610
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: course the Steelers open their training camp the preseason schedule.

611
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: They're already open training camp their preseason schedule Saturday at

612
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: Akershore Stadium against the Seattle Seahawks. I just keep saying

613
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: Acreshre Stadium, so I get used to saying act. I

614
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: keep avoiding it, so I needed do the drill you're

615
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: doing here. I never bring it down that into your head. Understand.

616
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,959
Speaker 1: Maybe it'll be my weekend project out of stayed over

617
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: and over in the front of a mirror. You know,

618
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: there's no place like home. Right now, we're working on

619
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: some actual kickoff here with the Steelers, a little special

620
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: team stuff. I wonder if actually likely this year they

621
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: might actually do the whole eleven on eleven right right? Yeah,

622
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: deep there we got the who's back here? Is that Pickens?

623
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: That's right, that's the answer me Farling and boom, Okay

624
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: you got about there, but he'd been outside to twenty anyways,

625
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: that's stuff Danny can actually watch on tape. Though. You know,

626
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,239
Speaker 1: these guys are on their lanes. Who's the first one

627
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: down there, who's quickest off the ball? You know? Right?

628
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: So they all got their beanies on front for the

629
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: kicking team and get the blues, get the yellows, greens,

630
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: lots of stuff, lots of stuff stuff, And it's the problem.

631
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: You can't do a lot very quick. Everyone walks back

632
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: and you run that just spring hundred yards all right?

633
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, I got it back down and do it again.

634
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: The rain is stopped here though for now. Yeah who

635
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: he knows? Yeah, so go figure. I mean that that

636
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: storm blew through here pretty fast. And some now people

637
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: settling back into the stands here at Chuck Noll Stadium.

638
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: It looks the skies. I think we avoided any of

639
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: the harsh stuff, the nasty stuff. Yeah, so they did well.

640
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: I'd keep practicing. I don't think the heavy stuff is

641
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: gonna even quite a while this time we get that

642
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: Tyler Vaughan's Yeah, Tyler Vaughans with the return there and okay,

643
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: good coverage on that and getting a good hunt. Now'll

644
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: get Tyler sneed back deep. They're trying some different guys. Yeah,

645
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: these are guys who probably get a chance to do

646
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: it in the game. Your boy thirty out there, though, Yeah,

647
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: I'd use him. I give him a show. He's quick,

648
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: quick to the quick to the whole. They're not using

649
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: them as a deep. Yeah, they's running back as one

650
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: of the short guys are one of the up men

651
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: because if he's squipid, he can you can pick it

652
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 1: up and go, and he should be solid enough to

653
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: lay a block in. It would surprise me though, if

654
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 1: they can get to the regular season, I wouldn't mind

655
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: seeing him back there. It makes sense. Quick as he is, Yeah,

656
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: it's quickly. I mean he catches kickoffs securely. I don't

657
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: know him catch the ball yeah, yeah, fine, he catches

658
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: the ball in the backfield really, so yeah, he would

659
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: be a guy would look at there once the season

660
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: starts here looking for you know, somewhere right now. I

661
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: think Anthony McFarland is listed as the back up there.

662
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 1: They still list you Aunte Johnson as a possibility return.

663
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: He's not gonna do anything, but yeah, our live coverage

664
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: here unfortunately, you know, if you got a lot of

665
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: special team stuff going on, I'm not gonna be super

666
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: exciting here. But to get the turn sneep, it's a

667
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,760
Speaker 1: nice hole there. Okay, he gets it up there quick.

668
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: He's a little guy, you know, he's a little guy.

669
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: A little guy. He's a break a lot of tackles

670
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 1: at the end of that period. Yes, absolutely so. Now

671
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: we'll go back to some probably some seven on seven here.

672
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: It's usually what they do next, and then the offensive

673
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: and defensive lineman will go over onto the other field

674
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: for some one on once mix it up a little bit.

675
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: There's one on ones. I was talking with its usually

676
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: core for about it today and he said, he said,

677
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: it's football, but it's it's football like, but it's not football. Yeah,

678
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: I mean it almost peeple like playing one on one

679
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: hoops or shootout in hockey year. You know, like there's

680
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: a lot more going on around you on the court,

681
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 1: ice field, you know than just that. Yeah, So you know,

682
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: I said, because I asked me, I said, you're gonna

683
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: be happy when the training camps over here. You don't

684
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 1: have to go against t J Watty day live one

685
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: on ones and pads. Yeah. He's like, well, it's you know,

686
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: it's making me better and that's that's the best way

687
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: to look at it. And he's on my team. You know,

688
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 1: I want I want great players you know, on the

689
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: field for you know, the Steelers. But it doesn't make

690
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: your tape look glorious. Yeah, no, no, And that's what

691
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: we are doing here. We're doing seven on seven from

692
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 1: the twenty eight going in and that looks like a

693
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: defensive win to me. He made him hold the ball

694
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: for a while, take a dump off to McFarland. Good coverage.

695
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, he was looking to his right and ended

696
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: up settling coming back to the left. Yeah, he went through.

697
00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: He was the third option. He went through two progressions

698
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: and then just found the dump off. The people that

699
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: chart this in the quarterback competition stuff just drives me crazy, Like,

700
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 1: I don't the yardage in particularly, but they don't count

701
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 1: count like not the same that this isn't the same

702
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: as when they're running team stuff. No, not at all.

703
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,879
Speaker 1: And there's no pass rush, you know, you can hold

704
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: hold the ball for six seconds, and I mean he

705
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: dumps it to McFarland late in the down and if

706
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: someone gives him credit for a completion there, okay, but

707
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: that's not how the play would have went, and it

708
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: certainly would not have been a twenty two yard completion.

709
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,919
Speaker 1: Now that that one was quick, geting right over the middle, boom,

710
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 1: get it out and you know that you pick up

711
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 1: foot five six yards something like that. Yeah, so that's

712
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: a little more realistic. Yeah. Um, but the late and

713
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,879
Speaker 1: the down stuff isn't really No, no, you can't look

714
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,439
Speaker 1: at that. And that's one of the things I learned again.

715
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: I'll go back to that that quarterback competition between kan't

716
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: Graham and Cordell Stewart and ken't Graham was consistently checking

717
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: the ball down like that. It's just like, okay, yeah,

718
00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: he completed the pass, great completion percentage, but anything you know,

719
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 1: twelve twelve completions for eighty yards doesn't doesn't even get

720
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: it done done, and it shouldn't give you the leg

721
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: up at any kind of quarter there's one take a shot, yeah,

722
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: game to get to tighten. And I think I was

723
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: raider on that one. I think it was too um judging.

724
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: Just a well thrown ball though, Yeah, put it over

725
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: his shoulder to the front pylon. Yeah, that's firemouth that

726
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: he couldn't come down. Defense wasn't bad. Defense kind of

727
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: got into contested a little bit, But I don't fault

728
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: anyone there. Yeah. Sometimes the other guys get paid to

729
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,359
Speaker 1: they they're allowed to make a play. That was nicely

730
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,799
Speaker 1: thrown ball. Yeah, it's good to see fire moves back

731
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 1: out there. Yeah. Um, you know, he missed a good

732
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: portion of time and Trabisky talked about that today when

733
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: we took spoke with him. You know how it's been.

734
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 1: It's kind of tough not being out there with you know,

735
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: no Najy Harris, no frore Clay Bowl has been Johnson

736
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 1: has been out and now he's has been out like

737
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 1: he's out there with Pickens, Miller and Deonte. Yeah. I mean,

738
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: like you got the big dogs out there. Did you

739
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,439
Speaker 1: want to build start building that that relationship with those

740
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: guys and completion to Calvin Austin, he's out turned on

741
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: the Jets are at the end and gets into the

742
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: end zone. It wasn't Miller was Austin was the third receiver.

743
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: That's set. Yeah, now we get the coming back. The

744
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 1: j Sternberger and Kevin Raider rang out. Raider limped off

745
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,959
Speaker 1: a little bit before. But I guess he's okay. Yeah,

746
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: he didn't get trainers didn't pay much attention to him

747
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: or anything. But you think it was sore. Well, if

748
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: you're Kevin Raider, you can't afford to know, you know,

749
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: miss time. There's that's the difference between know if you're hurt,

750
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: or if you're injured, or if you're a starter, or

751
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: if you're Kevin Raider. If it's Friar Muthen's bugging you,

752
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: why don't you sit out pat You know, they get

753
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 1: the alschewsky down here to the left where the tight

754
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: ends at. They okay, they're they were stacked any other

755
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:43,399
Speaker 1: similar mirror routes. That's the most kind of lating it down.

756
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: Dumping to McFarland. Linebacker two hand touched him. Yeah, I

757
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 1: do like the velocity with which you get that pass

758
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: out there to the plat though. Yeah, alongside right right

759
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 1: right now, he's looking right, looking right, flips his hips

760
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: real quick like an athlete gets it out boom, you know. Yeah,

761
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 1: Now that stuff is important. Yeah, absolutely that's some kind

762
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 1: weird bugs crawling up my neck. It's been there has

763
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: been weird both tread out there a little bit. Um. Yeah,

764
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: you're listening to our live coverage here on Steelers Nation Radio.

765
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: And to be clear on this too, like if you

766
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 1: would go the Colts practice or Patriot practice ten years

767
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,360
Speaker 1: ago and it's Manning or Brady, they're not getting it

768
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: out and at one point five seconds you know, all

769
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: the time, you know, like in these drills, if it's

770
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: not there, you dump it down, you flip it around,

771
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 1: you know, like I mean they're gonna practice as if

772
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: the plate is never blown dead. I mean that's the

773
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: same thing if you do right, I might being negative

774
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: on them when oh, you know they held it and

775
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: dumped it down like that's also how the plays drawn up.

776
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: You go from one to two to three, you know,

777
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 1: you know, can you pick ittt went through his reds

778
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: there and gets the ball out to Connor Heyward for

779
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 1: a nice little completion to his left there. So nice

780
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: job there. Um, Let's see Connor Heyward's gonna be I

781
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: think interesting, fellow. I think he's gonna have some catches

782
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 1: on the on Saturday, and the fans are gonna say, Okay,

783
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 1: maybe they draft in not because just because he's Camp's brother,

784
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: he can actually play a little bit. Yep, oh wide

785
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: opening the end zone there, miss him touch it down.

786
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,399
Speaker 1: That's just too long, too long. Yeah, raider came. There's

787
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 1: a blown cover to the raider came way open in

788
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: this left corn pick. It just didn't see it didn't um.

789
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: He had come off that read and was going to

790
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: his right. Yeah, but he tried to get the ball

791
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: to uh Miles Boykin in the front corner of the

792
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: end zone and and that wasn't a bad throws late

793
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: in the play. It wasn't a bad throat, you know.

794
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: But he also because because it was so late that

795
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: he gave the cornerback time to recover and come up

796
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 1: and break up the pass. Um. Let's see what they

797
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 1: got here. So he's breaking the pick it again. Farland's

798
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: out there, Boykin's out there. Get McFarland out there with

799
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: Jayla Warren in the backfielder goes in the motion, goes

800
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: to the bunch of the right and then let's see

801
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: what we do here. No, that's nice. Little we were

802
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: out there get across the Farland's routes were pretty impressive. Yeah, yeah,

803
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: it's a nice shot with that. Yeah. I mean I

804
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: don't think he's James White Eckler, like, you know, receiving

805
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: back only guy, but his receiving skills are improved. There

806
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 1: could be some little Darren sprowls like uh, true change

807
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: of pace. And we have seen him in practices be

808
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: out there with another back. Yeah, that was not the

809
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 1: first time I've seen right right right, Yeah, they like

810
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: to and they'll put him you know, in the in

811
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: the slot, uh or the jet motion guy, you know. Yeah,

812
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: And he does a nice job with that good completion

813
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: there to White and stuck it in there to Cony

814
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:33,279
Speaker 1: White right inside the five. Right now, Picket's gotten better.

815
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 1: You know. The thing that you you still want to

816
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: see is that internal clock. He's gonna take some sacks

817
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 1: in the preseason, won't surprise me. And he's gonna be

818
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: playing behind the third team line in the second half

819
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,919
Speaker 1: of the game, so they'll also be working against third

820
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: team guys. But he should shine in that kind of situation.

821
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: You would think. That's always a hard thing for me

822
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: to judge, Like, you know, people be like, but he's

823
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 1: a third team O lineman in front of him and

824
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 1: he's also got third students during defensive guys chasing him.

825
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 1: But the old line, there's a bigger drop off from

826
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: the ones the threes than the lines across. I mean,

827
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,359
Speaker 1: there's those third string offensive lineman. You don't see many

828
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: of those guys sticking around on practice, and they have

829
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: no continuity in the defensive guys or some fifth round

830
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:21,240
Speaker 1: athlete after play. So I don't know that that's apples

831
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: to apples that while you're playing against the threes and

832
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:25,919
Speaker 1: you're getting blocked by the threes, you know, we get

833
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph getting his shot at in there. So pick,

834
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 1: it's really been running the twos today and Rudolph's been

835
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 1: running the threes, even though Rudolph is going to be

836
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: the one who works with the twos on the Saturday.

837
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 1: And that's I mean, that's just him catching the ball

838
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: and getting out. Yeah, kind of what he's done this

839
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: entire camp. Just efficient. Yeah, yeah, you're talking abut Rudolf, right, yeah, Yeah,

840
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 1: he changed your opinion of him at all in this

841
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: camp a little, Yeah, I mean for the better. Yeah.

842
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,240
Speaker 1: I think he looks more and more comfortable, he's more efficient.

843
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: I know you weren't the biggest fan. No, his athleticism

844
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: always worried me, and do think he's improving in that area.

845
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: Will never be a strength. Um. I mean, deep down,

846
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,839
Speaker 1: I think he's a backup and always will be. But

847
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 1: I think he's better than I've ever seen him. Yeah,

848
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think he's a long

849
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: time back up in this league. And maybe you know,

850
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: somebody had signs him in the future and drafts one

851
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 1: and he's kind of holding horror you know, right right right,

852
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: you never kind of like what he's doing this year,

853
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: that Ryan Fitzpatrick or you know, he just becomes that

854
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 1: guy who, you know, if he could put a couple

855
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,760
Speaker 1: more NFL starts under his belt, maybe that wouldn't reputation hurt. Um.

856
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: I say this about Mason as well. He doesn't says

857
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: everything right. Yeah, he's not a rock the boat kind

858
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: of guy that this would be real easy in this situation,

859
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: hurt the shield. His work ethics never gonna be in

860
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 1: a question. Yeah, and he doesn't. You know, I don't

861
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,280
Speaker 1: think he's gotten completely a a great shot at winning

862
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: this job, despite what they've said, and he just he

863
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 1: saw that right away. You gotta catch at Nor does

864
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: he deserve it. I mean this, We're not here to

865
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 1: give participation trophies, you know, right we were, You're you're

866
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 1: trying to he's you know, they said, oh, it's an

867
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: open competition. It's not been an open competition, and anyone's

868
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: a fool of things that there would be or should be.

869
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: But it doesn't mean we don't like them, we don't

870
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: want to, we don't respect them. He doesn't value all

871
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 1: those things. It's you. He's a backup. Yeah. I just

872
00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 1: think you know, some fans can't get over some of

873
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: the play. You know, the game in Cleveland in particularly

874
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,439
Speaker 1: how bad that one went. And then he got pulled

875
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: for devil and Hodges next week in Cincinnati, and okay,

876
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: that was a tough situation. It was a real tough situation.

877
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 1: It was a nice throw right there, that's very nice

878
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: in the end zone type coverage, puts it right on

879
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 1: the line where it needs to be to a small receiver.

880
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: You know, HiT's hits the door knob there. Um. But

881
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:56,359
Speaker 1: mentally overcoming that Cleveland game and that those type of things,

882
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 1: and to keep getting better and keeping a valued member

883
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 1: of this team. She was a little bit about him too.

884
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 1: I I actually have a lot of respect for him

885
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 1: and how he's handled himself in this, in this whole situation,

886
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 1: because it would be easy to you know, make a fuss,

887
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: Hey I I should you know, you see it all

888
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,879
Speaker 1: over the league, guys demanding trades, and it's just um

889
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: if he wasn't college you to transfer it, you know,

890
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: toughing it out and fight it out, you know, And

891
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 1: Kevin Rider couldn't come down without No, it wasn't a

892
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: bad throw though over his head and on time to

893
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: the back shoulder, things right right right. You got a

894
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,920
Speaker 1: tight end matched up on a dB throat where the

895
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 1: tight end can catch it. Kelsey catches it right, yeah, Yeah,

896
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: that's just the way that goes. Now we're breaking it

897
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: down here. This this will probably be the last period,

898
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,760
Speaker 1: This will be the last competition. What are we working

899
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: on here? If we're coming out of our own end

900
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 1: zone here, it looks like ones versus one. Yeah, but

901
00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: the offense is backed up offensive, yeah, offense backed up

902
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: offense this and this changes things too on how you

903
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 1: run the place right right right? With this, you know,

904
00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: you don't have your full playbook at your at your

905
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 1: disposal when you know like that, there's a reason they
